Id think in your case GOLDBERG Red dope would be correct . Ive actually got a spray can of it, got it & two of silver , 1 I used on the P 51 Fuselage .
The Goldberg red is a rich deep red . Tho theve aged so need a little shaking , and take forever to harden . A few weeks in the sun would do it .

Ive got a pile of red duplicolour cans , from the past their use by date from Repco . Need a good shake & sit in hot water . Still inclined to be carefull
as a exploding red can of dope could get intresting . So the buckets out on the lawn as a rule .
